Goldwyn Resort & Residences opened its doors on Cable Beach in Nassau, 15 minutes from Linden Pindling International Airport and 10 minutes from downtown Nassau. The resort features 81 residential-style accommodations including studios, one-, two- and three-bedroom suites and three expansive Edge suites.

The three-bedroom signature Goldwynn Suite, suitable for hosting, features 1,940 square feet of interior space, three balconies, two terraces and a 270-degree unobstructed ocean view. The beachfront resort sits 50 feet from the water and features 12,000 square feet of indoor/outdoor meeting space for events like corporate gatherings and retreats. 

Guests can gather at Amara, the resort’s open-air eatery located on the infinity-pool deck, for a social environment alongside other guests, or choose to dine poolside in a private, butler-serviced cabana with views of the Cable Beach coastline. For something a bit more formal, Atira showcases the hemisphere’s tallest indoor relief sculpture, stretching five stories into the air by Bahamian master artist Kishan Munroe.
